Dear Ask The Doctor: Why is st johns wort not available in ireland is it helpfull for people who suffer low mood and panic attacks
Dear Maura: Ireland banned St. John's Wort as an over-the-counter drug. It is still available with a prescription, and therefore people may be treated with this medication by a doctor. Probable reason for the ban was possible interactions of this medicine with other drugs and harmful side effects.
